Kingi Karanga
Kingi Karanga is a New Zealand man who gained notoriety for a series of dangerous driving incidents in 2017, including driving the wrong way on motorways at high speeds, which led to multiple convictions for endangering transport. He was sentenced to over six years in prison for these offenses and other crimes, including burglary and assault. Despite being released on parole in 2023, he was recalled to prison for new charges, and he recently sought to appeal his convictions related to endangering transport, arguing that they should be classified as reckless driving instead.
